The girl's eyelashes trembled for a while before she finally opened her eyes with some effort.
When she saw that her surroundings had changed again, confusion appeared in her eyes. But when her gaze passed over Xu Zhi, her brows furrowed, and the confusion turned into struggle.
She instinctively felt hostility toward Xu Zhi, the innate malice Fanatics held toward Transcendents. Yet deep down, she also felt a strange closeness toward the beautiful girl before her. She even felt that Xu Zhi was someone extremely important, someone whose words she should obey. But that was wrong.
Intense rejection swept over her in an instant, so severe that her body reacted. She began to feel dizzy and nauseous, her emotions turning irritable. She wanted to do something to vent the guilt in her heart over not being firm enough in her faith.
For instance, kill the person in front of her who had made her waver?
No, no, no. How could she kill her?
No, that was wrong. She should kill her!
The two thoughts fought in her mind. The girl felt as though her head were splitting apart, her heart unbearably heavy and confused. Ever since her organs had been removed, her body had also remained in tremendous pain.
A thought even surfaced in her mind: perhaps death would end this pain.
But now, she did not even have the right to end her own life.
Because of her supernatural abilities, her vitality was far tougher than that of an ordinary believer. Even after most of her organs had been hollowed out, she was still alive. Biting her tongue to commit suicide was out of the question. Besides that, she could not even sit up from the bed. What other way could she have to end her life?
